Jerome's pov
When I came into office today, what I least expected was getting swamped by reporters around me, alerting the security guards.
Another surprise happened when I entered my office to see my best friends chilling on my desk. Damien was seating on my chair, snoring peacefully while Kyle laid on my desk like a model but he too also fell asleep.
Me being me, I decided to take a picture of them and keep it. Who knows, I could use it as blackmail and make it into a sticker as well. Hehe.
Somehow, I had a air horn in my office. Not sure why and how it got in my office but it would work to wake them up, and thus I used it. It was the best reaction ever.
Kyle literally tumbled over and landed in his butt while Damien fell face first on the ground. I couldn't help but laugh.
They both were groaning in pain. Serves them right. I mean why are they in my office being elephants and taking up all the space for me to work.
"Dude what in the h3ll was that?!" Kyle exclaimed, rubbing his head. I just shrugged my shoulders.
"So. Why are you here?" I asked as they both got back to their original position before I scared them. Rolling my eyes, I gave them the 'tell me or I will kick you out' look and they gladly told me.
"Have you seen the news? Or a magazine? Something of that sort?" I shook my head. I was never one to read gossip or watch the news.
Intrigued, I questioned, "So what's the big deal?" All they did was throw me a magazine and the front cover read: Jerome Turner and Joslyn James were seen together at a restaurant, chatting and getting close to one another. What's going to happen now?
"Oh god" I couldn't help but let out a sigh. Well I would have expected that. I mean we were both known to be celebrities and it was a common thing for such gossip.
But what shocked me was how poorly they wrote about Joslyn. She was one to never to get into relationships but the way they talked about her is mean. Speaking of the devil, I had an incoming call from Joslyn.
"Love, I read the news. Are you okay?" I asked concerned. I wasn't too sure how she would take the news. Despite knowing she was strong, I seriously had no idea what goes through and her emotions.
"Ya, yeah. No issue!" She reassured me. "They are just a bunch of useless and dumb idiots who have nothing better to do.
I mean I get that it is their job, but why do they have to write such vile things about people?" She ranted about it but I found it so amazing how she cared more about other people than herself.
I planned on going over tonight at Joslyn's house for Netflix and chill. It was going to be an impromptu idea but who cares?
â¢â¢â¢
Some time had passed since everything and I was going over right now spontaneously. Hope Joslyn likes my company. Teehee!
For fun, I decided to get her attention through the old and used joke- Knock Knock. I just hope whatever that happens will cheer her up.
I knew she wasn't working and Alden was not at home. I hope. Damm. I hope my plan works.
Knock! My fist made contact with the door and boom there was a duck waddling. Haha jk. Wow, I need Joslyn to cure me from my old man disease.
But it wasn't Joslyn. It was Gavin and Weston standing in all glory. One was holding golf club. No clue how do they even have that while the other had a tissue box on hand. They look kinda cute.
"Oh phew. It's just you" Gavin released his breath before chugging both of the 'tools' into a pile of already messy things. Well you do you boo.
"How many times have I told you to not open the door. And why did you chug them into the messy pile which I told y'all to clean up?" A powerful voice shouted from upstairs I assumed.
"Uh oh. Got to go! Nice seeing you Jerome sir!" Gavin managed to squealed before being pulled by Weston. I chuckled at their antics. Chaotic but fun at the same time.
Slowly, I entered the house and see Joslyn sighing, cleaning up the mess. Aww, she's so cute, I thought.
Me being nice, I placed the stuff I got and started to help her with picking up the stuff on the floor, shocking Joslyn. I shouldn't be laughing but I couldn't control.
She screamed and jumped on my back then proceeds to hit me. Well attempt to. I was able to block them and just carry her instead.
"Th-that wa-was so hi-hila-hilarious!!!" I laughed boisterously seeing her reaction. She just pouted and crosses her arms.
"So what brings you here?" She asked which made me remember why I came here in the first place.
I ran into the kitchen where everything I bought was there. "Here, it's for you!" She beamed seeing the bouquet of flowers.
"Omg! They are so pretty thank you!!" She exclaimed, kissing my cheek.
Next I dangled the bag of food which I pre ordered and picked it up. It was Vietnamese cuisine.
I knew they were interested in trying new foods so I decided Vietnamese food. I haven't tried it before but the smell is amazing.
"Ooo! What is that?" She sniffed the air but couldn't recognize it. She had her thinking face on which was cute. I wanted to pinch her cheeks and kiss the life out of her.
"Vietnamese food" I decided to spare her from her misery and just tell her although I enjoyed looking at her and her thinking face.
"Ooooo. I have never tried it before but sounds good!" She gave the stamp of approval. "Right so is Bethany and Alden eating with us? I bought all of their shares"
She nodded. "They should be coming now" Speaking of the devils, they both arrived.
"Hey yo it's me Bethany. Oh oops hi Jerome" Bethany screamed, alerting her presence to everyone.
"Jerome hi!" Alden exclaimed, doing the bro hug and a fist bump. Yes we cool.
"I bought some Vietnamese food for you guys to try!" I told them as the two cheeky boys came tumbling down at the sound of food.
"Did I hear food? FOOOODD!" Gavin shouted with joy. "Smells good!" Weston said more civilized.
Once we all settled down, I took out everything that I bought.
"What's this?" Joslyn asked, pointing to Banh cuon. "That?" She nodded for confirmation. "That's Banh cuon. Try it. Is it good?" I asked.
Thankfully they all enjoyed the food which I bought. "Want to netflix and chill with your family?" I asked privately when everyone started dispersing after eating.
"Hm, with you. I miss you so much!" She responded with a hug and a kiss on the lips. Damm I love her kisses.
She led me into her room which was had the minimalistic vibes to it.
We settled on the bed and chose a show to watch. After much deliberation and compromising, we decided on The Good Place. At first, she wanted Crash Landing On You while I wanted to watch Money Heist.
Flashback
"I want to watch Crash Landing On You!" She exclaimed. My face scrunched up in dismay upon hearing her suggestion. "Can we watch Money Heist instead?"
To say the least we took too long to decide a show we both agree and was finally decided after a good ten minutes. Let's just say I would be following with whatever Joslyn said. I'm scared...
Flashback over
After the movie, we cuddled in bed. I was playing with her hair, enjoying the nice feeling and smell of her hair.
"Good night babe" I whispered into her ear. "Good night love" She muttered as we both fell into a deep sleep.
Sleeping with her is as if I was in heaven!
